..An evaluative decision thus begins by recruiting motivational and semantic influences within limbic networks, and these influences appear to shape the development of the decision within multiple neocortical regions...

Transition from cortical slow oscillations of sleep to spike-wave seizures

..In cats, spike-wave (SW) seizures have been observed to emerge from cortical slow oscillations (CSOs) and spindles in sleep. We examined a patient's generalized SW seizures that appeared to emerge from CSOs in sleep...

Electrophysiological responses to errors and feedback in the process of action regulation

..In contrast, the centroparietal P3b and N384 effects related to the contextual ambiguity of bivalent trials are consistent with the context monitoring and updating functions associated with the posterior cingulate learning circuit...

Frontal and posterior sources of event-related potentials in semantic comprehension

..These findings suggest that the use of event-related potential methodology with paradigms that elicit cognition-emotion can provide insight into the neural mechanisms of regulatory deficits that result in problem behaviors in youth...

..Although preliminary, these findings suggest that the specific mechanisms of learning in animal neurophysiology studies may prove informative for understanding the neural basis of human learning and executive cognitive control...

Computational modeling of human head electromagnetics for source localization of milliscale brain dynamics

..The paper reports on the application of the environment in the processing of realistic head models, including conductivity inverse estimation and lead field generation for use in EEG source analysis...

..Our previous analyses of ERP and EEG data suggested that the ERN is dominated by partial phase-locking of intermittent theta-band EEG activity. In this paper, this possibility is further evaluated...

Love hurts: the evolution of empathic concern through the encephalization of nociceptive capacity

..The psychological improvement from cognitive therapy thus appears to be associated with activation of prefrontal cortex that varies closely with the demands for self-regulation of emotional reactivity...
